A new report details the potential effects that could be produced by a hypothetical major earthquake on a California fault running underneath the Bay Area.
The simulation predicts what could happen if a magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit directly under the city of Oakland on the Hayward fault, which runs under the highly populated East Bay corridor and is called one of the most active and dangerous faults by the U.S.Geological Survey.
“It’s potentially catastrophic,” said CalTech seismologist Dr. Lucy Jones. “When you build a city right on the fault you get much worse shaking than we usually think about.”
If this earthquake were to occur today, the report says it could result in the deaths of 800 people and cause 18,000 injuries -- numbers the report says could be reduced by earthquake early warning systems currently in development. Jones added that one of the purposes of the report is to show how slightly increasing construction costs can significantly reduce the number of buildings damaged in a major earthquake.
In the report’s scenario, damage from shaking could displace 77,000 households, and many high-rise office and residential buildings in San Francisco could be unusable for up to 10 months after a major earthquake.
USGS quake scenario finds hundreds could die in NorCal​
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) —
A hypothetical magnitude 7 earthquake on the San Francisco Bay region's notorious Hayward fault could kill hundreds, injure thousands and cause $82 billion in property damage and business losses, according to a scenario created by a coalition of experts to help residents and policymakers prepare for and reduce disaster impacts.
The "HayWired" scenario was released Wednesday, the 112th anniversary of the GreatQuake of 1906 that ravaged San Francisco.

A powerful earthquake occurred just off the coast of central Chile during Wednesday evening local time and has produced a tsunami over the Pacific basin.
The quake is the third most powerful earthquake in five years to strike the South America nation.
According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the quake registered magnitude 8.3, at 7:54 p.m. local time (4 p.m. PDT) on Wednesday. The quake lasted for approximately three minutes.
The temblor occurred 46 km (28 miles) west of Illapel, Chile, and 229 km (142 miles) northwest of Santiago, Chile's capital. It occurred as the result of thrust faulting on the interface between the Nazca and South America plates in central Chile, the USGS said.
At least 10 people were killed as a result of the quake, according to the BBC. One millionChileans were evacuated due to tsunami warnings. The tsunami warnings in the immediate area have been canceled.
Officials are citing preparedness and strict building codes in many areas for the low number of fatalities, despite the massive quake.
Dry conditions across much of Chile, including near where the earthquake occurred, will not hinder cleanup and recovery efforts, AccuWeather Meteorologist JordanRoot said.
"Dry weather will continue for the next few days including Chile's Independence Day on Friday," Root said, adding that seasonable temperatures are expected.
Aftershocks remain the primary concern.
Dozens of aftershocks have occurred in the area since the initial temblor, with the largest being a magnitude 7.0, according to the USGS. The shocks can lead to additional damage, cause more buildings to collapse and endanger those partaking in rescue and recovery efforts.
Landslides and damage to buildings were reported in Coquimbo and Canela, according to ChileanDeputyInterior MinisterMahmud Aleuy Peña y Lillo and local government officials.
Chilean Interior Minister Jorge Burgos said the Chilean government ordered the evacuation of coastal cities. Some hospitals were evacuated as a result of the earthquake. The Chilean Red Cross said on its Twitter feed that it was sending relief supplies to the most affected parts of the country.
As of Thursday morning, more than 135,000 families across Chile were without power, the NationalEmergencyOffice reported. The electric company, Chilectra, reported having teams out to fix the issues.
The Associated Press reported that buildings swayed in Santiago and communications have been disrupted. The AP also said that some adobe houses have collapsed in Illapel.
School classes on Thursday have been canceled across much of the country, Chilean PresidentMichelle Bachelet said. Emergency measures were taken very quickly given the magnitude of the earthquake, the president said.

Mexico was struck by a powerful earthquake on Monday that killed at least 134 people and toppled several buildings in the capital.
Rescue workers were digging through rubble throughout the night in a desperate search for survivors.
The 7.1 magnitude earthquake came on the anniversary of a devastating 1985 temblor that caused major damage to Mexico City, and struck as many people took part in an earthquake drill.

Market Street, Oxford

The street lies north of the Covered Market, a historic roofed market with permanent stalls that is still very much active today, and north of Lincoln College's Lincoln House accommodation complex. To the west is the major pedestrianised shopping street, Cornmarket Street, and to the east is Turl Street. On the north side of the street is Jesus College, one of Oxford University's historic colleges with its main entrance in the Turl.

Market Street, Manchester

Market Street is one of the principal retail streets in Manchester, England. It runs from its junction with Piccadilly and Mosley Street, close to Piccadilly Gardens, in the east to where it meets St. Mary's Gate at the crossroads with Exchange Street and New Cathedral Street in the west. St Mary's Gate then continues to where it meets Deansgate (A56). Other major streets crossed are High Street, Corporation Street (on the north side), Cross Street and Fountain Street (on the south side).

History

Market Street in Manchester, once known as Market Stead Lane, lies along the former route of the A6 road which goes from Luton, Bedfordshire, to Carlisle, Cumbria. The A6 arrives at Manchester city centre as London Road and formerly went west along Piccadilly, Market Street, St. Mary's Gate and Blackfriars Street and then over the River Irwell to Blackfriars Street, Salford. But since the pedestrianisation of Market Street the A6 disappears at the junction of Piccadilly and Oldham Street to reemerge in Salford as Chapel Street.

Most games in the series are set in fictional locales modelled on American cities, usually either Liberty City, Vice City, or San Andreas, which are stand-ins for New York City, Miami, and the state of California, respectively. The first game encompassed three fictional cities, while subsequent titles tend to emphasise a single city and its outlying areas. Gameplay focuses on an open world where the player can choose missions to progress an overall story, as well as engaging in side activities, all consisting of action-adventure, driving, third-person shooting, occasional role-playing, stealth, and racing elements. The series also has elements of the earlier beat 'em up games from the 16-bit era. The series has gained controversy for its adult nature and violent themes. The series focuses around many different protagonists who attempt to rise through the ranks of the criminal underworld, although their motives for doing so vary in each game. The antagonists are commonly characters who have betrayed the protagonist or his organisation, or characters who have the most impact impeding the protagonist's progress. The series contains satire and humour.

OVER 500DEAD, $200,000,000 LOST IN SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE
NearlyHalf the City is in Ruins and 50,000 Are Homeless.
WATER SUPPLY FAILS AND DYNAMITE IS USED IN VAINGreat BuildingsConsumed Before Helpless Firemen—
FederalTroops and Militia Guard the City With Orders to Shoot DownThieves—
Citizens Roused in Early Morning by Great Convulsion and HundredsCaught by Falling Walls.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 18.—Earthquake and fire today have put nearly half of San Francisco in ruins. About 500 persons have been killed, a thousand injured, and the property loss will exceed $200,000,000.
Fifty thousand people are homeless and destitute, and all day long streams of people have been fleeing from the stricken districts to places of safety.
It was 5:13 this morning when a terrific earthquake shock shook the whole city and the surrounding country. One shock apparently lasted two minutes, and there was almost immediate collapse of flimsy structures all over the city.
The water supply was cut off, and when fire started in various sections there was nothing to do but let the buildings burn. Telegraph and telephone communication was cut off for a time.
The WesternUnion was put completely out of business and the PostalCompany was the only one that managed to get a wire out of the city. About ten o'clock even the Postal was forced to suspend.
Electric power was stopped and street cars did not run, railroads and ferryboats also ceased operations. The various fires raged all day and the fire department has been powerless to do anything except dynamite buildings threatened. All day long explosions have shaken the city and added to the terror of the inhabitants.
Following the first shock, there was another within five minutes, but not nearly so severe. Three hours later, there was another slight quake.
First Warning at 5:13 A.M.
Most of the people of San Franciso were asleep at 5:13 o'clock this morning when the terrible earthquake came without warning.
The motion of the disturbance was from east to west. At first the upheaval of the earth was gradual, but in a few seconds it was increased in intensity. Chimneys began to fall and buildings to crack, tottering on their foundations...SteelFrameBuildingsStand.
The tall, steel-frame structures stood the strain better than brick buildings, few of them being badly damaged. The big eleven-story Mondadnock office building, in course of construction, adjoining the Palace Hotel, was an exception, however, its rear wall collapsing and many cracks being made across its front...
A portion of the new City Hall, which cost more than $7,000,000, collapsed, the roof sliding into the courtyard, and the smaller towers tumbling down. The great dome was moved, but did not fall.
The newPost Office, one of the finest in the United States, was badly shattered...
FiresStart in Many Places.
Scarcely had the earth ceased to shake when fires started simultaneously in many places. The FireDepartment promptly responded to the first calls for aid, but it was found that the water mains had been rendered useless by the underground movement.
Fanned by a light breeze, the flames quickly spread, and soon many blocks were seen to be doomed. Then dynamite was resorted to, and the sound of frequent explosions added to the terror of the people. These efforts to stay the progress of the fire, however, proved futile.
The south side of Market Street, from Ninth Street to the bay, was soon ablaze, the fire covering a belt two blocks wide. On this, the main thoroughfare, were many of the finest edifices in the city, including the Grant, Parrott, Flood, Call, Examiner, and Monadnock Buildings, and the Palace and Grand Hotels... the entire city seemed to be in flames.

According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the quake registered magnitude 8.3, at 7:54 p.m. local time (4 p.m. PDT) on Wednesday. The quake lasted for approximately three minutes.
The temblor occurred 46 km (28 miles) west of Illapel, Chile, and 229 km (142 miles) northwest of Santiago, Chile's capital. It occurred as the result of thrust faulting on the interface between the Nazca and South America plates in central Chile, the USGS said.

A new report details the potential effects that could be produced by a hypothetical major earthquake on a California fault running underneath the Bay Area.
The simulation predicts what could happen if a magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit directly under the city of Oakland on the Hayward fault, which runs under the highly populated East Bay corridor and is called one of the most active and dangerous faults by the U.S.Geological Survey.
“It’s potentially catastrophic,” said CalTech seismologist Dr. Lucy Jones. “When you build a city right on the fault you get much worse shaking than we usually think about.”
If this earthquake were to occur today, the report says it could result in the deaths of 800 people and cause 18,000 injuries -- numbers the report says could be reduced by earthquake early warning systems currently in development. Jones added that one of the purposes of the report is to show how slightly increasing construction costs can significantly reduce the number of buildings damaged in a major earthquake.
In the report’s scenario, damage from shaking could displace 77,000 households, and many high-rise office and residential buildings in San Francisco could be unusable for up to 10 months after a major earthquake.
USGS quake scenario finds hundreds could die in NorCal​
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) —
A hypothetical magnitude 7 earthquake on the San Francisco Bay region's notorious Hayward fault could kill hundreds, injure thousands and cause $82 billion in property damage and business losses, according to a scenario created by a coalition of experts to help residents and policymakers prepare for and reduce disaster impacts.
The "HayWired" scenario was released Wednesday, the 112th anniversary of the GreatQuake of 1906 that ravaged San Francisco.

A powerful earthquake occurred just off the coast of central Chile during Wednesday evening local time and has produced a tsunami over the Pacific basin.
The quake is the third most powerful earthquake in five years to strike the South America nation.
According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the quake registered magnitude 8.3, at 7:54 p.m. local time (4 p.m. PDT) on Wednesday. The quake lasted for approximately three minutes.
The temblor occurred 46 km (28 miles) west of Illapel, Chile, and 229 km (142 miles) northwest of Santiago, Chile's capital. It occurred as the result of thrust faulting on the interface between the Nazca and South America plates in central Chile, the USGS said.
At least 10 people were killed as a result of the quake, according to the BBC. One millionChileans were evacuated due to tsunami warnings. The tsunami warnings in the immediate area have been canceled.
Officials are citing preparedness and strict building codes in many areas for the low number of fatalities, despite the massive quake.
Dry conditions across much of Chile, including near where the earthquake occurred, will not hinder cleanup and recovery efforts, AccuWeather Meteorologist JordanRoot said.
"Dry weather will continue for the next few days including Chile's Independence Day on Friday," Root said, adding that seasonable temperatures are expected.
Aftershocks remain the primary concern.
Dozens of aftershocks have occurred in the area since the initial temblor, with the largest being a magnitude 7.0, according to the USGS. The shocks can lead to additional damage, cause more buildings to collapse and endanger those partaking in rescue and recovery efforts.
Landslides and damage to buildings were reported in Coquimbo and Canela, according to ChileanDeputyInterior MinisterMahmud Aleuy Peña y Lillo and local government officials.
Chilean Interior Minister Jorge Burgos said the Chilean government ordered the evacuation of coastal cities. Some hospitals were evacuated as a result of the earthquake. The Chilean Red Cross said on its Twitter feed that it was sending relief supplies to the most affected parts of the country.
As of Thursday morning, more than 135,000 families across Chile were without power, the NationalEmergencyOffice reported. The electric company, Chilectra, reported having teams out to fix the issues.
The Associated Press reported that buildings swayed in Santiago and communications have been disrupted. The AP also said that some adobe houses have collapsed in Illapel.
School classes on Thursday have been canceled across much of the country, Chilean PresidentMichelle Bachelet said. Emergency measures were taken very quickly given the magnitude of the earthquake, the president said.

The New York Times, April 19, 1906, p. 1:
OVER 500DEAD, $200,000,000 LOST IN SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE
NearlyHalf the City is in Ruins and 50,000 Are Homeless.
WATER SUPPLY FAILS AND DYNAMITE IS USED IN VAINGreat BuildingsConsumed Before Helpless Firemen—
FederalTroops and Militia Guard the City With Orders to Shoot DownThieves—
Citizens Roused in Early Morning by Great Convulsion and HundredsCaught by Falling Walls.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 18.—Earthquake and fire today have put nearly half of San Francisco in ruins. About 500 persons have been killed, a thousand injured, and the property loss will exceed $200,000,000.
Fifty thousand people are homeless and destitute, and all day long streams of people have been fleeing from the stricken districts to places of safety.
It was 5:13 this morning when a terrific earthquake shock shook the whole city and the surrounding country. One shock apparently lasted two minutes, and there was almost immediate collapse of flimsy structures all over the city.
The water supply was cut off, and when fire started in various sections there was nothing to do but let the buildings burn. Telegraph and telephone communication was cut off for a time.
The WesternUnion was put completely out of business and the PostalCompany was the only one that managed to get a wire out of the city. About ten o'clock even the Postal was forced to suspend.
Electric power was stopped and street cars did not run, railroads and ferryboats also ceased operations. The various fires raged all day and the fire department has been powerless to do anything except dynamite buildings threatened. All day long explosions have shaken the city and added to the terror of the inhabitants.
Following the first shock, there was another within five minutes, but not nearly so severe. Three hours later, there was another slight quake.
First Warning at 5:13 A.M.
Most of the people of San Franciso were asleep at 5:13 o'clock this morning when the terrible earthquake came without warning.
The motion of the disturbance was from east to west. At first the upheaval of the earth was gradual, but in a few seconds it was increased in intensity. Chimneys began to fall and buildings to crack, tottering on their foundations...SteelFrameBuildingsStand.
The tall, steel-frame structures stood the strain better than brick buildings, few of them being badly damaged. The big eleven-story Mondadnock office building, in course of construction, adjoining the Palace Hotel, was an exception, however, its rear wall collapsing and many cracks being made across its front...
A portion of the new City Hall, which cost more than $7,000,000, collapsed, the roof sliding into the courtyard, and the smaller towers tumbling down. The great dome was moved, but did not fall.
The newPost Office, one of the finest in the United States, was badly shattered...
FiresStart in Many Places.
Scarcely had the earth ceased to shake when fires started simultaneously in many places. The FireDepartment promptly responded to the first calls for aid, but it was found that the water mains had been rendered useless by the underground movement.
Fanned by a light breeze, the flames quickly spread, and soon many blocks were seen to be doomed. Then dynamite was resorted to, and the sound of frequent explosions added to the terror of the people. These efforts to stay the progress of the fire, however, proved futile.
The south side of Market Street, from Ninth Street to the bay, was soon ablaze, the fire covering a belt two blocks wide. On this, the main thoroughfare, were many of the finest edifices in the city, including the Grant, Parrott, Flood, Call, Examiner, and Monadnock Buildings, and the Palace and Grand Hotels... the entire city seemed to be in flames.

NearlyHalf the City is in Ruins and 50,000 Are Homeless.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 18.—Earthquake and fire today have put nearly half of San Francisco in ruins. About 500 persons have been killed, a thousand injured, and the property loss will exceed $200,000,000.
Fifty thousand people are homeless and destitute, and all day long streams of people have been fleeing from the stricken districts to places of safety.
It was 5:13 this morning when a terrific earthquake shock shook the whole city and the surrounding country. One shock apparently lasted two minutes, and there was almost immediate collapse of flimsy structures all over the city.
The water supply was cut off, and when fire started in various sections there was nothing to do but let the buildings burn. Telegraph and telephone communication was cut off for a time.
The WesternUnion was put completely out of business and the PostalCompany was the only one that managed to get a wire out of the city. About ten o'clock even the Postal was forced to suspend.
Electric power was stopped and street cars did not run, railroads and ferryboats also ceased operations. The various fires raged all day and the fire department has been powerless to do anything except dynamite buildings threatened. All day long explosions have shaken the city and added to the terror of the inhabitants.
Following the first shock, there was another within five minutes, but not nearly so severe. Three hours later, there was another slight quake.
First Warning at 5:13 A.M.
Most of the people of San Franciso were asleep at 5:13 o'clock this morning when the terrible earthquake came without warning.
The motion of the disturbance was from east to west. At first the upheaval of the earth was gradual, but in a few seconds it was increased in intensity. Chimneys began to fall and buildings to crack, tottering on their foundations...SteelFrameBuildingsStand.
The tall, steel-frame structures stood the strain better than brick buildings, few of them being badly damaged. The big eleven-story Mondadnock office building, in course of construction, adjoining the Palace Hotel, was an exception, however, its rear wall collapsing and many cracks being made across its front...
A portion of the new City Hall, which cost more than $7,000,000, collapsed, the roof sliding into the courtyard, and the smaller towers tumbling down. The great dome was moved, but did not fall.
The newPost Office, one of the finest in the United States, was badly shattered...
FiresStart in Many Places.
Scarcely had the earth ceased to shake when fires started simultaneously in many places. The FireDepartment promptly responded to the first calls for aid, but it was found that the water mains had been rendered useless by the underground movement.
Fanned by a light breeze, the flames quickly spread, and soon many blocks were seen to be doomed. Then dynamite was resorted to, and the sound of frequent explosions added to the terror of the people. These efforts to stay the progress of the fire, however, proved futile.
The south side of Market Street, from Ninth Street to the bay, was soon ablaze, the fire covering a belt two blocks wide. On this, the main thoroughfare, were many of the finest edifices in the city, including the Grant, Parrott, Flood, Call, Examiner, and Monadnock Buildings, and the Palace and Grand Hotels... the entire city seemed to be in flames.

USGS report: Earthquake in Bay Area can cause huge loss of life and property.

A new report details the potential effects that could be produced by a hypothetical major earthquake on a California fault running underneath the Bay Area.
The simulation predicts what could happen if a magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit directly under the city of Oakland on the Hayward fault, which runs under the highly populated East Bay corridor and is called one of the most active and dangerous faults by the U.S.Geological Survey.
“It’s potentially catastrophic,” said CalTech seismologist Dr. Lucy Jones. “When you build a city right on the fault you get much worse shaking than we usually think about.”
If this earthquake were to occur today, the report says it could result in the deaths of 800 people and cause 18,000 injuries -- numbers the report says could be reduced by earthquake early warning systems currently in development. Jones added that one of the purposes of the report is to show how slightly increasing construction costs can significantly reduce the number of buildings damaged in a major earthquake.
In the report’s scenario, damage from shaking could displace 77,000 households, and many high-rise office and residential buildings in San Francisco could be unusable for up to 10 months after a major earthquake.
USGS quake scenario finds hundreds could die in NorCal​
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) —
A hypothetical magnitude 7 earthquake on the San Francisco Bay region's notorious Hayward fault could kill hundreds, injure thousands and cause $82 billion in property damage and business losses, according to a scenario created by a coalition of experts to help residents and policymakers prepare for and reduce disaster impacts.
The "HayWired" scenario was released Wednesday, the 112th anniversary of the GreatQuake of 1906 that ravaged San Francisco.

A powerful earthquake occurred just off the coast of central Chile during Wednesday evening local time and has produced a tsunami over the Pacific basin.
The quake is the third most powerful earthquake in five years to strike the South America nation.
According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the quake registered magnitude 8.3, at 7:54 p.m. local time (4 p.m. PDT) on Wednesday. The quake lasted for approximately three minutes.
The temblor occurred 46 km (28 miles) west of Illapel, Chile, and 229 km (142 miles) northwest of Santiago, Chile's capital. It occurred as the result of thrust faulting on the interface between the Nazca and South America plates in central Chile, the USGS said.
At least 10 people were killed as a result of the quake, according to the BBC. One millionChileans were evacuated due to tsunami warnings. The tsunami warnings in the immediate area have been canceled.
Officials are citing preparedness and strict building codes in many areas for the low number of fatalities, despite the massive quake.
Dry conditions across much of Chile, including near where the earthquake occurred, will not hinder cleanup and recovery efforts, AccuWeather Meteorologist JordanRoot said.
"Dry weather will continue for the next few days including Chile's Independence Day on Friday," Root said, adding that seasonable temperatures are expected.
Aftershocks remain the primary concern.
Dozens of aftershocks have occurred in the area since the initial temblor, with the largest being a magnitude 7.0, according to the USGS. The shocks can lead to additional damage, cause more buildings to collapse and endanger those partaking in rescue and recovery efforts.
Landslides and damage to buildings were reported in Coquimbo and Canela, according to ChileanDeputyInterior MinisterMahmud Aleuy Peña y Lillo and local government officials.
Chilean Interior Minister Jorge Burgos said the Chilean government ordered the evacuation of coastal cities. Some hospitals were evacuated as a result of the earthquake. The Chilean Red Cross said on its Twitter feed that it was sending relief supplies to the most affected parts of the country.
As of Thursday morning, more than 135,000 families across Chile were without power, the NationalEmergencyOffice reported. The electric company, Chilectra, reported having teams out to fix the issues.
The Associated Press reported that buildings swayed in Santiago and communications have been disrupted. The AP also said that some adobe houses have collapsed in Illapel.
School classes on Thursday have been canceled across much of the country, Chilean PresidentMichelle Bachelet said. Emergency measures were taken very quickly given the magnitude of the earthquake, the president said.

Observations and measurements of the Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō eruption on Kīlauea Volcano’s EastRiftZone during the past month suggest that the magma system beneath Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō has become increasingly pressurized, the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported April 17. If this activity continues, a new vent could form at any time, either on the Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō cone or along adjacent areas of the East Rift Zone, it added.
